I need to rectify my no-graphics card problem. My integrated graphics does fine for what I need, but I want to expand

 

-New FM2+ Mobo

-Corsair 750 PSU

Eventually I want to upgrade to an i7 Skylake, and install a liquid cooler.

They had one that interested me, 90 Plus Gold, under $100 from Newegg after the rebate.

 

I'm certainly open to other suggestions.

I eventually wanna upgrade my rig to either i7-4790K, or an i7-6600K, and get myself a 980ti.

 

Aside that though, I love my system right now. As of today, I finally completed my setup, ending it with a SteelSeries Rival 300 mouse. 8D

Probably an Haswell i5, decent but cheap motherboard for it and a GPU close to R9 280 or so performance.

Thinking about more RAM and an SSD too, but it all depends on my finances and stuff..

I can't remember what they're called, but the new AMD Finfet CPUs out this year are supposed to be a re entry into high performance CPUs for them.

 

But you know, its AMD and those are rumors. The CPUs probably won't live up to the hype
